Текст Bo Burnham – Sad

(It’s about how sad I am.
And I’m really sad, so it’s called «Sad»
It’s about all the sad stuff
Just picture a depressed onion cutting itself)

I met a homeless man named Rich (He wasn’t)
Isn’t that terrible?
I saw a flyer for a lost dog and the dog didn’t have any legs
I saw a diabetic kid trick-or-treating
I saw a giraffe who had a short neck
That was sad or a… deer

I saw an old man get hit by a train
He didn’t see it in the pouring rain
He didn’t hear me shout, «Look out for the train!»
‘Cause I didn’t say anything
I just thought to myself, «Oh, this is gonna be sad»
And it was, I’m a genius

I saw a man with only one eye in a 3D movie
I saw a little boy drop his ice cream cone directly on his mother’s corpse
I saw a kitten stuck in a tree then the kitten jumped off and he hung itself
I saw a boy who had red hair…

I went to a store looking for something to buy
But they only sold paintings of the same sad guy
No, wait! This store sells mirrors
See what I did there?

Let’s rock
No

The world’s so sad, bros
Pain, genocide, war, sexism, racism
But I gotta remember there are good things about it too
Like the fact that none of that’s happening to me, score!

I saw an old man slip and fall. Hey, what a fucking idiot
I saw a woman at her daughter’s funeral. Ha ha ha! Classic comedy!
Everything that once was sad is somehow funny now
The Holocaust and 9/11
That shit’s funny 24/7
‘Cause tragedy will be exclusively joked about
Because my empathy is bumming me out
Goodbye, sadness! Hello, jokes!
